I don't know if it exists, but I programmed a module which had 1 function to push function and parameters saving then in a table; and a hook_cron which start a counter, and executed functions for 5 seconds. Simple but useful.
I could send you my code to use as a start point.

Is there any module that let you put "actions" in a queue and then process the queue during hook_cron in D5?
Ideally something will put an action in the queue (say a function call + serialized parameters in a text field), the module hook_cron should pick it up, run it, delete it from the queue accordingly to the result of the action and log any failure.
